BobCat22 Posted Friday at 03:02 PM Report Posted Friday at 03:02 PM Orangefield school board has set a bond election for May 2 for improvements to athletic facilities. The improvements will be turf to football, baseball and softball fields as well as expanded seating, additional lighting and additional parking. Also new pressbox at the football stadium. These are much needed upgrades. Hopefully it will pass this time. LOUD and Proud and Mr. Buddy Garrity 2 Quote

88Warrior Posted 26 minutes ago Report Posted 26 minutes ago Absolutely no dog in this hunt, but to me this is the correct way to do this type of bond. Having it be a standalone vote instead of buried in or attached to a bond for new school buildings/buses etc..is much more transparent. A lot of taxpayers do not mind additional tax dollars going to buildings but oppose those dollars going towards an artificial turfed field that some my consider more of a nice to have than a necessity… Quote
